Summary
Natalie Scatorccio hasn’t seen Lottie Matthews since the night their relationship imploded on Christmas Eve. A decade later, she’s trying to impress her new boyfriend’s family for the holidays, right up until his sister walks through the door with her new girlfriend. Lottie.
Neither of them wants to ruin Christmas, so they do the only sensible thing: pretend they’re strangers.
Ten years apart, one very complicated holiday, and a spark that never really went out. What could possibly go wrong?
OR
“Mari, introduce us,” Bill prompts, oblivious to the static crackling under the surface of the room.
“Oh,” Mari says, turning toward the living room. “Right. This is my brother, Travis. And this is his girlfriend, Natalie.”
Girlfriend. The word lands strangely, thick and sticky.
Nat flinches almost imperceptibly, then smooths herself over with that familiar, practiced inhale. She steps forward.
“Hi,” she says, voice just a shade too rough. She extends her hand toward Lottie like a stranger. “I’m Natalie. It’s nice to meet you.”

Summary
"Nat lets out a breathless laugh, eyes fluttering open. “You think you’ve got me figured out already?”
Lottie leans down, nose brushing Nat’s, lips barely touching. “I told you at the bar,” she whispers. “You want me to wreck you.”
Nat just groans, dragging her nails lightly down Lottie’s sides, breath coming quicker now, every nerve in her body on high alert. “Yeah,” she whispers. “Maybe I do.”
And fuck, she does. More than she can admit."
Or
Natalie Scatorccio is the lead singer of an indie band, Clam Slam—addicted to drugs, and the feeling of being wanted.
Lottie is everything she’s not: clean, calm, controlled... and far too interested.
It starts with a show. It doesn’t stop there.

Natalie Scatorccio transfers to Westhill Academy with a ripped backpack, chipped nail polish, and zero interest in fitting in. Jackie Taylor is the school’s queen bee—perfect hair, perfect grades, and a life built on appearances.

But then Jackie gets paired with Natalie for a Lit project, and suddenly she can’t stop thinking about combat boots, and the way Natalie calls her tense like it’s a compliment.
It starts with a glare.
It ends with a kiss.And neither of them is ready for what comes next.

Summary
Twelve years ago, Mari Ibarra kissed Natalie Scatorccio after a national championship win... and never heard from her again.
Now, at Taissa’s 30th birthday weekend with the old Yellowjackets team, Natalie shows up late, loud, and just as hot as Mari remembers. The tension is immediate. The history lingers. And somewhere between wine, unresolved glances, and one late-night conversation, everything comes crashing back.
Maybe it was never just one kiss.

Summary
Toni's always hated Shelby, so when Shelby gets drunk at Fatin's birthday party and throws herself at Toni out of nowhere, it all starts out as some sort of weirdly fucked up power play, because shouting matches with Shelby are going to be so much more satisfying for Toni when they both know that Toni rocked Shelby's world that one time in Fatin's guest bathroom.
It's supposed to be just the one time, until it isn't.
It's supposed to be just sex, until it's not.
(High school AU; everyone lives in Texas, some stuff from canon happens)

Summary
She was shoving her cleats into her locker when Lottie —fucking— Matthews rolled up with a paper flower in hand.
"Hey." Lottie smiled like she wanted to, but also like she was holding back because of the bloodthirsty staredown Nat had just given her. "Sorry they're being assholes. You were great today."
Then she handed her the flower and left. It had French words scribbled across one side and pink highlighter on the other, and the tip was ripped like the girl had just torn her class notes in half to make the stupid thing.
She smiled to herself. Lottie fucking Matthews.

Summary
“About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”
“Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”
“Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”
“Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”
*
Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.
